Books are a wonderful gift that you can open all year long! Koelsch Elementary School and Hawthorne Elementary School received 500+ books each, so every student can take books home for holiday reading! Thanks to Boise School District Community Schools for making this connection for us!

Larry H. Miller Subaru Boise is supporting students and classrooms at Koelsch Elementary School through a Subaru of America, Inc. initiative this month called Subaru Loves Learning. Throughout the month of August, they’ll aim to fill a Subaru to the brim with essential supplies including pencils, 3-ring binders, glue, colored pencils, earbuds, highlighters, spiral notebooks, and more.

If you'd like to support students at Koelsch Elementary, drop off supplies at the dealership at 11196 W. Fairview Ave. in Boise from now through August 31.

We believe all children deserve a quality education and want to do our part to help provide some of the resources necessary for our community’s students to learn and grow in the classroom.
That’s why Larry Miller Subaru Boise is proud to adopt classrooms at Koelsch Elementary School in Boise this year as part of Subaru Loves Learning month.

Help us fill a Subaru to the brim in August by bringing in school supplies for Koelsch kids!

Congratulations to Boise School District teacher Katie Mason, Idaho Public Television's Digital Innovator for the 2020-2021 school year! The Digital Innovator program recognizes Idaho teachers who enhance learning by integrating technology or digital media into their classrooms. Koelsch Elementary School principal Pam Dietz celebrates Katie with these words: “Katie Mason is a true go-getter. She serves in various leadership roles at Koelsch and does so honorably. When Katie is presented with a situation she is solution-driven and does what is best for her students and family. She is mindful of the various needs of her students and addresses them with care and compassion. She is a valuable professional at Koelsch and is respected by staff, students, and families.” Thank you Katie for all you do for students!

Congratulations to Koelsch Elementary School first-grade teacher Katie Mason, who was just named our 2020-2021 IdahoPTV Digital Innovator. Here's what that means for Katie, and for lucky teachers around the state who will get to learn from her:

Construction on Koelsch Elementary School began in March of 1956 with students and faculty being housed in Cole and Franklin Schools until the new school was ready for occupancy.

It took about nine months for most of the construction. In December of 1956, students moved into the new building even though there was some construction still to be completed. A dedication of the building was held in February of 1957, honoring Judge Charles Koelsch, for whom the building was named. Koelsch school was full the first year of operation.
